EasyNPC

Introduction

- Do you use dozens of NPC overhauls, and struggle to remember which mods apply to which NPCs?

- Do you suffer from blackface bugs, even when you're sure that you installed and ordered everything correctly?

- Are you itching to try out the latest NPC mods, but worried about the lack of compatibility patches?

- Do you wish for a better way than "muh load order" to decide which of your 6 replacers will win for a given NPC?

- Or maybe you want to use some, but not all of the customizations from an overhaul touching hundreds of NPCs?

If you answered "yes" to any of the above questions, then this is for you. EasyNPC is designed to take the pain, tedium, and bugs out of NPC modding, and make it simple and fun. Instead of fussing with load orders, guides, patches, more patches and editors, you'll be able to follow 3 simple steps:

• []Install lots of NPC mods.

  []Point at the faces you like.

  []Let it build your own personal, standalone, conflict-free mod to use in place of the originals.

  You can think of it as a visual browser, merge tool and über-patcher for NPCs, all in one app.

    Main Features

    EasyNPC is under active development. To see what's coming, check the GitHub issues page. As of today, here's what it offers:

    • []Browse all customized NPCs, or quickly find any NPCs and their customization options, using a simple and fast UI with filtering and search capabilities.

      []Visually compare overhaul options with pictures of how the different mods will look.

      []Automatically combine the visual aspects of overhauls with the functional aspects of other mods - no need for patches.

      []Check for problems or red flags in NPC mods, or with the selections you've made.

      []Maintain your settings even if you accidentally remove or disable a plugin or mod - while also giving the option to "catch up" with any permanent changes.

      []Build a merged overhaul that is completely standalone. It will still reference non-visual mods such as USSEP as masters, but will have no dependencies on either the plugins or the files/assets from the visual overhauls, meaning that you can disable all of the original overhauls afterward to free up load order slots.

      []Automatically pack your overhaul as a BSA - or multiple BSAs, for very large overhauls - to improve performance and load times.

      []Quickly check the final state of the mod for any problems, such as conflicts with other mods.
